A Sonet for you



the sun lays down...
the moon is all thats left...
as i lay besides you...
i see the moon in your eyes...

too the nights air...
alone and as silent as snow...
so many nights ive waited...
our lips come ever closer...

if i have dreamed a thousand dreams...
it would all lead to this moment...
if i have had one wish to dream..
it would be just a kiss and in this moment...

as she wispers with the wind...
as i listen to her heart...
